TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 43: Infinite reasons for Microsoft to worry

What a week it’s been in the world of gaming and, more specifically, Microsoft with their big hitter getting delayed - amongst other things. Naturally, the news of Halo Infinite being pushed back is a large focus on TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 43, but other revelations may also cause concern as the Xbox Series X launch gets closer and closer. You could say there are Infinite reasons for Microsoft to worry…

In this episode, Gareth, James and Edgar are ready to delve straight into the Halo delay, including why it had to be done and how detrimental it could be for the Xbox Series X, which was already looking short on exclusive launch titles. On top of that, Apple blocking Microsoft’s xCloud is certainly a blow to gamers worldwide. And to cap off a bad week, it appears as if the console launch date has leaked, stealing the thunder from any upcoming announcements Phil Spencer had prepared.

Fortunately, the games the trio have been playing over the past seven days injects some positivity into proceedings. Gareth has had a blast on the frantically fun Fall Guys, while Edgar decided to replay Resident Evil – Code: Veronica. James invested time into CCG Faeria and reminisced about an old Sega light gun he recently found. There’s also a rather in-depth discussion regarding Train Sim World 2, which releases soon.

Before wrapping up, there’s just time to bring up the fascinating new features coming to FIFA 21, the announcement of the Control Ultimate Edition, and Cyberpunk 2077’s ongoing development saga.
